Your body is probably adjusting to the
hormones.
If pregnancy is suspected, you need to
test for it.
That's about the only advice anyone can
give.

You were trying to skip your period,
right? That's just what happens. You
probably shouldn't have stopped two days
ago, but if you've taken more than a
month's worth of pills in a row it
shouldn't matter. So make sure you start
taking pills again a week from when you
stopped and make this your placebo week.
(So in five days)

Completely normal, happen to me when I
started taking Seasonale. By skipping
inactives, your essentialy doing the same
as seasonale which describes break through
bleeding as being common during the first
few months, min only lasted 2 months and
it was very light and very on and off.
